Provincial laboratories are testing digital tools and innovative solutions to support more rapid diagnostic services to improve access to testing for people living with diseases, such as cancer, throughout B.C.

A partnership aimed at fighting pollution in the aviation sector, growing investment and supporting clean, sustainable jobs and business opportunities for people in British Columbia has been made between the B.C. government and Vancouver International Airport (YVR).

Brenda Bailey, Minister of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation, has issued the following statement on the release of Statistics Canada’s Labour Force Survey for August 2023:

New funding for the University of Victoria’s (UVic) Experimental Ocean Climate Change Lab (EXCEL) will support research on the impact of climate change on the environment and the promotion of resilience and sustainability for B.C.’s marine sector.

A renewed agreement between the Province and a Japanese investment corporation will help create more sustainable and efficient communities that are better protected against the impacts of climate change, while attracting increased investment into B.C.

B.C. is expanding the Integrated Marketplace initiative to the Port of Prince Rupert to reduce emissions and create economic opportunities through local innovation that will help create the greenest port in Canada.
